Tuoba Jian was a little dissatisfied with Liu Jizong's attitude, although the news that Zhao Junsheng had been loyal to him was not known to outsiders, but he could not let Zhao Junsheng be looked down upon, and Liu Jizong was still his subordinate.

"It can't be said that the cavalry is not invincible to the infantry, and my Great Wei cavalry has not confronted the infantry of the Jin Dynasty (Eastern Jin Dynasty) and the Qin State (Later Qin) head-on, if the enemy's infantry formation is dense, the military spirit is stable, and the formation does not show flaws, it is difficult for our cavalry to break through head-on, but it is easy to fall into the formation and be surrounded and annihilated!"

Tuoba Jian immediately competed with each other: "King Yongchang, what you said is only in a very small number of cases, in fact, in most cases, our army's attacks on the Jin Dynasty and the Qin State are victorious, and their infantry can't stop our cavalry from charging at all!" If you don't believe it, you can rehearse it now, and let Zhao Junsheng's 3,000 heavy troops fight against my 1,000 cavalry, do you dare? ”

Tuoba Jian, as a prince and a general in commanding the army, of course he can't show weakness, even if Zhao Junsheng's three thousand heavy soldiers are nominally under his control, but Zhao Junsheng has secretly taken refuge in him, he has to treat them as his own, and immediately said: "Why don't you dare? ”

"That's fine!" Tuoba Jian turned to An Yuan and clenched his fists and said, "Dashuai, please be a witness, let Zhao Junsheng's 3,000 infantry and my 1,000 cavalry conduct a confrontation drill, and see if he Zhao Junsheng's infantry is powerful, or my cavalry is powerful!" ”

An Yuan also wanted to see whether Zhao Junsheng, a 3,000-strong infantryman, was a hero or a bear when he arrived on the battlefield, and he immediately nodded: "Okay, this commander will be this witness!" ”

Tuoba Jian immediately ordered Yuan He to prepare a thousand cavalry, and Yuan He led the team to fight against Zhao Junsheng.

An Yuan called Zhao Junsheng and said: "Zhao Junsheng, General Tuoba wants to test the combat strength of the infantry under your command, and he sends a thousand cavalry under the command of the Marquis of Xiping to fight against your 3,000 foot soldiers, are you willing?" ”

Zhao Junsheng looked at Tuoba Jian, then at Tuoba Jian, hesitated for a moment and said: "Great Marshal, the confrontation between two armies with such a large force scale, even if it is just a drill, will cause a lot of casualties!" The subordinates were not worried about the injuries or deaths of the infantry under their command, but the cavalry of General Tuoba, the infantry was slightly safer on the ground, and once the cavalry fell from their horses, they would either die or be injured under the high-speed impact······"

Before he finished speaking, Tuoba Jian waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about you at this time, even if the cavalry under the command of this general dies, it has nothing to do with you, you only say that you dare?" If you don't dare, just admit that the infantry is inferior to the cavalry, and the matter will be forgotten! ”

Zhao Junsheng has always believed that there is no absolutely invincible class of troops in this world, it depends on how to use it, and what about cavalry? Infantry fighting cavalry is not without the possibility of victory.

He smiled and said, "Since General Tuoba wants to have a try, how can he let the general be disappointed by his humble position?" Come on, go and call Xue Andu! ”

"Yes!" One of the pro-soldiers agreed, and immediately ran off the stage.

Tuoba Jian said to Tuoba Jian again: "King Yongchang, it's not interesting to compete like this, why don't you and me add a little color?" ”

"What do you want to bet on?"

"Two hundred gold, whoever loses will take two hundred gold and hand it over to the winner!"

Tuoba Jian couldn't help but glance at Zhao Junsheng, wanting to see if Zhao Junsheng was really sure, Zhao Junsheng hesitated for a moment, and quietly made a gesture with his fingers.

Tuoba Jian looked a little hesitant when he saw Zhao Junsheng, it can be seen that he is not sure of victory, and he is hesitant in his heart, but now that it is difficult to ride a tiger, Tuoba Jian has forced him on the edge of the cliff, and he can't do it if he doesn't agree.

"Okay, just bet two hundred gold!"

As soon as the two discussed the bet, Yuan He came over and clenched his fists to Tuoba Jian and reported: "General, a thousand cavalry are ready!" ”

Tuoba Jian pulled Yuan He aside and commanded in a low voice: "After the battle starts later, you must do your best to lead the team to this general to rush over and crush Zhao Junsheng's 3,000 infantry!" ”

"Really rushing into his army? General, this is not a joke, this is a drill, not a real battle, if you really rush into the opponent's formation, it will become a real fight! ”

Tuoba Jian asked, "How can you defeat them if you don't rush into the formation?" ”

"This ······" Genga was speechless.

Tuoba Jian patted Yuan He on the shoulder: "It's decided!" Those are just heavy soldiers, even if there are heavy casualties, it's a big deal to recruit again, we lack everything, just don't lack Han people! ”

Genga didn't know what to say.

Xue Andu also walked over and reported to Zhao Junsheng: "Dutong, are you looking for me?" ”

Zhao Junsheng pulled Xue Andu aside and explained in a low voice: "Tuoba Sword wants to use a thousand cavalry to attack my three thousand foot soldiers, and the two sides will fight against each other, but Bendu can't refuse!" I've thought about it, and you guys have arranged the Eight Golden Lock Arrays according to my orders from the beginning! If they don't rush into the formation, they can only shoot on horseback on the periphery, you will form a shield array to resist the arrows, and deploy a bow and arrow phalanx in the middle for a long-range counterattack, and when they shoot all the arrows, they will have to rush into the battle if they want to win, and then it will become a real fight, and you will wait for the battle with the eight golden locks, and trap them in the formation and divide and surround them! Also, place your first battalion on the periphery, the first battalion has been through a few battles after all, and it is much more courageous! Let Gao Xiu be the chief general of the military formation, and preside over the operation of the military formation to resist the enemy! ”

Xue Andu nodded and asked, "After dividing them and besieging them······

"Don't hurt people's lives first, follow my orders, if they don't teach the rules of the drill, it's not too late for you to kill them!"

Zhao Junsheng knew very well that it was difficult to control the situation and scale by investing so many troops in drills and conducting actual contact confrontations, and many of Tuoba Jian's cavalry were Xianbei people, and most of the others were other barbarians, these people have always had no good attitude towards the Han people, and it was easy for the two sides to move seriously after the two sides fought!

Xue Andu clenched his fists with a solemn expression and agreed: "The subordinates understand that the subordinates will convey the words of the capital to Gao Xiu and Gao Xu!" ”

"Okay, let's go!"

After Xue Andu left, Tuoba Jian came over and asked, "Zhao Dutong, when can you start here?" ”

"Please General Tuoba be calm and don't be impatient, and the general will naturally be notified when the formation is completed!"

After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he walked to the front of the stage and looked at the military formation below, in which Xue Andu was talking to Gao Xiu and Gao Xu, and the three of them quickly turned to look at the parade platform and put up a small flag.

Zhao Junsheng immediately raised the small flag and waved it continuously, and used the flag language to signal them to arrange the whole army into an eight-gate golden lock formation.

The three of them separately ordered the flag bearer to reply with a flag message.

The entire military formation moved quickly, but in less than a cup of tea, the original formation became an eight-gate golden lock array.

Some of the generals on the parade platform, including Yasuhara, felt quite mysterious when they saw the eight golden lock arrays, a circular military array was divided into many small pieces, and there were many passages in the middle, although it felt very mysterious, but they couldn't understand what the purpose of this military array was.

After the deployment of the Eight Golden Lock Formations was completed, Gao Xiu, as the chief general presiding over the formation, stood on a carriage in the middle, so that he could look at the situation in all directions of the entire military formation.

Zhao Junsheng saw the flag sent by Gao Xiu's standard-bearer, indicating that he was ready, so he turned to Tuoba Jian and said, "General Tuoba, my three thousand men and horses are ready!" You're not going to let my infantry attack your cavalry, are you? ”

"Hey, General Ben isn't shameless enough to be like this!" Tuoba Jian sneered, and immediately ordered his own soldiers: "Go and tell the Marquis of Xiping and let him attack!" ”

"Yes, General!"

After Genga got the order, he knew that this drill was likely to make a big fuss, the cavalry fought the infantry, if you didn't rush into battle, it would be difficult for the other party to break up on its own, and the rush would inevitably bring casualties, which was unavoidable, even if the protective measures were done well, even if the spears, swords and arrows used by both sides were wrapped in strips of cloth, it would be difficult to avoid casualties, but he couldn't disobey Tuoba Sword's order, he had no choice.

He took out his bow and arrows and shouted to the thousand cavalry behind him: "Brothers, strictly abide by the rules of the drill, if there are white lines or white spots on your body, you have to quit, the drill begins, rush me!" ”

Genga and his horse rushed forward first, and the cavalry behind him also rushed forward after him.

According to the requirements of the charging formation, even the light cavalry must maintain a dense formation, so as to concentrate on the assault, but it is obvious that these cavalry cannot maintain the neatness of the military formation in the process of running at high speed.

Zhao Junsheng saw that Yuan He led the team to launch a frontal attack, and immediately waved the flag in his hand.

Under Gao Xiu's order, the three thousand heavy soldiers on the school field immediately blocked their shields in front, and the entire door was locked into a closed military formation with shields in front, and dense spears were inserted diagonally behind the shields.

Gao Xiu immediately gave a second order, and a strong man beside him shouted with a huge roar: "Archer prepares - five rounds of fire, release arrows-"

As long as there is distance, the Foot Archer can always deal damage, and its range can be much longer than that of a Mounted Archer.

"Whoosh ······" A thousand archers in the formation shot arrows at the same time, one after another.

The cavalry of the Fertile Field Army, who was sprinting at high speed, were very shot by arrows, and white spots appeared on their bodies, and out of the rules, these people still consciously slowed down and gradually withdrew from the school field.

After three rounds of arrows, Genga's cavalry also rushed within range of the cavalry at this time, and under his orders, the cavalry of the Woye Army began to shoot arrows at the baggage army.

But at this time, the baggage soldiers had already put their shields on top of their heads under the command of Gao Xiu, forming a large shield array with strong defense.

"Dingding······ The dense arrows kept falling on the shields, but only a small number of baggage soldiers were shot, and they slowly withdrew from the school grounds.
